I was a scrawny kid in school (weighed less than 100 lbs. and was about 5'4" when I graduated)... no one picked on me and no groups invited me in their after-school events/parties.

Most of it had to do with that I didn't have the physical ability/stature to play any organized sports... including soccer.

I grew about 5" after high school and now weigh about 168 lbs.

Is kind of funny when I go back to my hs reunions... lots of the popular people are shorter than me, have receeding hair/no hair, and kind of dumpy.

For the most part I was satisfied with my HS experience, but I was glad to graduate and move on to college... I wouldn't want to go back in time though :-)

I too was the scrawny kid....was ostracized and was picked on incessantly.

I came back for my 10 year reunion. Wearing the uniform of a First Class Petty Officer in the United States Navy. Finally got the respect I always deserved.
